https://youtu.be/972dRJ2V5c4 MotorTrends Dan Kahn called this 1965 Mustang fastback, a fully independent Ferrari beater wrapped in vintage tin As the oldest authorized Shelby Cobra dealer in the world, we can testify its every bit of that, and more. This 1965 Mustang GT, fastback is the finest pro-touring build weve ever seen and weve seen a lot of them in the past 25 years Admittedly, thats a bold statement. Read more to learn what backs that up. The original build was meticulously completed in 2004 by Maeco Motorsport, at the time located in Northridge, California. Maeco is known for precision engineering and construction, building bodies and chassis for both street and racing applications. Classic Mustangs are one of their specialties. When it was originally completed twenty-two years ago, more than $155,000 was invested in building the owners dream car (over $265,000 in todays money), which included myriad handling and performance upgrades along with creature comforts. The most recent owner, who is a world-class craftsman in his own right, spared no expense in taking it to the next level, and beyond, investing an additional $160,000 to create a pro touring rocket with performance and handling comparable to the finest cars on the road today, all wrapped in a beautiful Silver Smoke Gray, 1965 Mustang fastback Maeco body, de-badged to give it a clean, minimalist look. The project started when the original owner contacted Maeco Motorsport to build his dream luxury race car. He wanted the option to drive it on the street comfortably, as well as push the envelope on the back roads, at speed. Performance and handling were at the top of the list, with creature comforts like power rack & pinion power power windows, and an excellent sound system close behind. Maeco started with a bone stock, rust free, 1965 Mustang fastback and modified the unibody to strengthen it, top and bottom. A new, all metal hood was installed with a functional hood scoop and NACA ducts to keep air flowing through the engine compartment at triple digit speeds. Maeco spec torque boxes and frame rails were installed and tied to a roll cage reinforced with carbon fiber. This was done to counteract the body-twisting-torque of the 530 HP, 347 C. I. Ford Racing engine, which was rebuilt in 2022, roughly 3,000 miles ago . To put that power on the ground, Maeco installed a four-link rear end and a Detroit Locker rear axle. Since then, the rear axle has been changed to a more streetable Wave Track, locking, Curry 9 rear differential using 31 spline axles . Its bulletproof. The front end has been replaced by a Total Control coil-over system with adjustable shocks and adjustable tie rods for bump steer correction keeping the front-end evenly on the ground Along with the coil over front suspension, Total Control Power rack and pinion steering helps to keep the car predictably where you aim it, flat on the road or track at speed, in corners and on the straights. The unibody is all metal . No fiberglass on this one. While not immediately noticeable, the folks at Maeco fabricated slightly flared fenders to accommodate bigger wheels and fatter tires. It easily turns lock-to-lock without rubbing. The body gaps are perfect a big improvement over the original Ford construction. Doors open and close like a new Lexus . There are a number of companies that build exceptional pro-touring recreations of 1965-1970 Shelby Mustangs that are priced well into six figures. You can expect to pay $375K to more than half a million $ for one that is properly set up for the street. This 1965 pro-touring Mustang is ready to enjoy as a weekend show car, pushing the envelope on the back roads, or hot laps at your favorite race venue, all while listening to a custom Alpine car audio system combined with the delicious sound of a powerful Ford 302R V8. In addition to robust car audio, power windows were installed for added creature comfort. An air conditioning system was installed, but the previous owner removed the compressor and receiver dryer as it wasnt needed in N. California. The rest of the components are still installed in the car (AC/heater controls, duct work, vents, blower plenum, etc.) and the heater/defroster works fine. The list of equipment on this one is mind boggling Engine is an SVO, 302R Ford factory race block with four bolt main bearings, bored/stroked to 347 cubic inches, balanced and blueprinted. A Ron Davis radiator with dual electric fans keeps it cool year round. Aluminum cylinder heads from Trick Flow are ported and polished with LS individual coils over each spark plug . Inside the block, the reciprocating mass includes the very best components a balanced Scat forged crankshaft , Carrillo rods, Diamond pistons, Erson custom grind solid-roller camshaft with Crower stainless steel 1.6 ratio roller rockers, XRP hoses a custom road race heated and baffled oil pan , Edelbrock 1000 cfm electronic throttle body fuel injection with 60 LB injectors, custom 1 5/8" equal length stainless steel headers and full stainless steel 3" exhaust. Engine dyno shows 530 HP. Clutch is a Tilton dual disc actuated by a Tilton hydraulic throw-out bearing inside a Quick Time steel bellhousing. The transmission is a new Tremec TKX five speed with a custom short-throw shifter To put all this power on the ground, its equipped with a custom 4" diameter carbon fiber driveshaft with extra large u-joints, 9" Ford differential housing a Wave Track 3:50 to 1 locking rear axle surrounded by four link suspension geometry . All four Koni shock absorbers are adjustable for additional ground clearance if needed. It stops as well as it goes. Four wheel Baer/Alcon Pro disc brakes with slotted rotors bring it to a stop effortlessly. Slowing at a high speed freeway exit or entering a hairpin turn is quick and predictably progressive. Front brakes are equipped with functional cooling ducts originally designed for NASCAR. The duct air intake is carbon fiber . Recently, a new electric emergency brake system from Stopp was installed. Its far superior to the stock version, and it actually works! With the press of a button, you could almost hang it on a wall! The Alpine surround system with a trunk mounted power amp interfaces with Android or iPhone. All running gear: including the engine, transmission, carbon fiber driveshaft and rear end are all new or rebuilt within the last 3200 miles. This car runs exceptionally well. It cruises effortlessly at 80 mph turning a comfortable 2300 rpm, and sticks to the road like its on rails. Generous use of carbon fiber components is evident throughout the car, including the drive shaft air cleaner snorkel, brake cooling duct intakes, rear wheel center caps, roll cage struts, door panels, console, glove box door and instrument panel. The gauge cluster is all Autometer In the trunk, youll find a Fuel Safe fuel cell with a fresh bladder , and a Optima AGM trunk-mounted battery, like 65 GT350s. In 2010, Dan Kahn of MotorTrend featured this car in both online and print. Since the article was written, the car has been further refined with state of the art performance and creature comfort upgrades to craft a pro-touring weekend toy that is at home on both the track and the back roads.

In short, we locate, inspect, appraise, and transport cars to customers around the world. We are a licensed dealer in the state of Missouri, with consulting offices in Dallas, Texas and Las Vegas, Nevada metro areas. The majority of cars you see in our "For Sale" section are owned by our customers throughout the US and Canada. Many purchased them from us a few years ago, and for a variety of reasons, have recently asked us to sell them and handle inquiries. We ask them to keep their car in their own garage until sold. The reason we leave them with the owner is pretty simple. Moving one twice makes no sense to us. It adds significantly to the cost, and doubles the potential for damage during transport. You may see a car you like among those listed on DynamicMotorsports.com. If not, we also keep quite a few unlisted cars in our portfolio. For various reasons, these are not advertised at the request of the owners. Be sure and ask us about them when you contact us. Take a moment to give us a ring or send an email. We provide a "turn-key" locating, evaluation, inspection, appraisal, purchase, and delivery service for buyers of investment quality GM, Ford, and Mopar classics, European exotics and brand new Shelby Cobra and Superformance products. We are also dealers for the Carroll Shelby Engine Company, and Roush Performance. Our clients are both domestic and international, and we deliver cars anywhere in the civilized world.
